And she's buying a stairway to heaven
There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon, If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.

Hay una mujer que está convencida
De que todo lo que brilla es oro
Y está comprando la
Escalera al paraí__so
Cuando llegue allí, sabe
Que si las tiendas están todas cerradas
Con solo una palabra podrá conseguir
Lo que ha venido a buscar
Uuuh
Y está comprando una
Escalera al paraí__so
Hay un cartel en la pared
Pero ella quiere estar segura
Porque ya sabes que a veces
Las palabras tienen dos significados
En un árbol junto al arroyo
Hay un pájaro cantor que canta
A veces todos nuestros pensamientos
Son malinterpretados
Oh, me hace preguntarme
Oh, me hace preguntarme
Hay un sentimiento que me invade
Cuando miro hacia el oeste
Y mi espíritu está
Llorando por marcharme
En mis pensamientos he visto
Anillos de humo entre los árboles
Y las voces de aquellos
Que se quedan mirando
Oh, me hace preguntarme
Oh, de verdad me hace preguntarme
Y se susurra que pronto
Si todos tocamos la melodía
Entonces el flautista
Nos llevará a la razón
Y un nuevo día amanecerá
Para aquellos que esperan
Y los bosques
Resonarán con risas
Si hay un bullicio
En tu seto
No te alarmes ahora
Es solo una limpieza
De primavera para la reina de mayo
Sí, hay dos caminos
Por los que puedes ir
Pero a la larga
Aún hay tiempo
Para cambiar el camino en el que estás
Y me hace preguntarme
Tu cabeza zumba y no se va
Por si no lo sabes
El flautista te llama para que te unas a él
Querida dama, ¿puedes oír soplar el viento?
¿Y sabías
Que tu escalera se encuentra
En el viento susurrante?
Y mientras serpenteamos por el camino
Nuestras sombras más altas que nuestra alma
Allí camina una dama que todos conocemos
Que brilla con luz blanca y quiere mostrar
Cómo todo sigue convirtiéndose en oro
Y si escuchas con mucha atención
La melodía te llegará al fin
Cuando todos son uno y uno es todo, sí
Ser una roca y no rodar
Y ella está comprando una escalera al cielo
Traducción literaria al italiano — fiel al sentimiento del autor, no es cantable.
C'è una signora che è convinta
Che tutto ciò che luccica sia oro
E sta comprando la
Scala per il para__iso
Quando arriverà lì, sa bene
Che se i negozi saranno tutti chiusi
Basterà una sua parola per ottenere
Ciò per cui è venuta
Uuuh
E sta comprando una
Scala per il para_iso
C'è un cartello sul muro
Ma lei vuole esserne sicura
Perché sai, a volte
Le parole hanno due significati
Su un albero vicino al ruscello
C'è un uccellino che canta
A volte tutti i nostri pensieri
Sono fraintesi
Oh, mi fa riflettere
Oh, mi fa riflettere
C'è una sensazione che provo
Quando guardo verso ovest
E il mio spirito sta
Gridando di andarsene
Nei miei pensieri ho visto
Anelli di fumo tra gli alberi
E le voci di coloro
Che stanno lì a guardare
Oh, mi fa riflettere
Oh, mi fa davvero riflettere
E si sussurra che presto
Se tutti noi suoniamo la melodia
Allora il pifferaio ci
Condurrà alla ragione
E un nuovo giorno sorgerà
Per coloro che resistono a lungo
E le foreste
Risuoneranno di risate
Se c'è un trambusto
Nella tua siepe
Non allarmarti ora
È solo una pulizia di primavera
Per la regina di maggio
Sì, ci sono due sentieri
Che puoi percorrere
Ma alla lunga
C'è ancora tempo
Per cambiare la strada che stai seguendo
E mi fa riflettere
La tua testa ronza e non smette
Nel caso non lo sapessi
Il pifferaio ti sta chiamando per unirti a lui
Cara signora, riesci a sentire il vento che soffia?
E lo sapevi
Che la tua scalinata giace
Sul vento sussurrante?
E mentre ci avventuriamo lungo la strada
Le nostre ombre più alte delle nostre anime
C'è una donna che tutti conosciamo
Che risplende di luce bianca e vuole mostrare
Come tutto si trasformi ancora in oro
E se ascolti con molta attenzione
La melodia ti raggiungerà alla fine
Quando tutti sono uno e uno è tutto, sì
Essere una roccia e non rotolare
E lei sta comprando una scala per il paradiso
Traducción literaria al portugués — fiel al sentimiento del autor, no es cantable.
Há uma senhora que tem a certeza
De que tudo o que brilha é ouro
E ela está a comprar a
Escada para o céu
Quando lá chegar, ela sabe
Que se as lojas estiverem todas fechadas
Com uma palavra ela consegue
O que veio buscar
Uuuh
E ela está a comprar uma
Escada para o céu
Há um sinal na parede
Mas ela quer ter a certeza
Porque sabes que, às vezes,
As palavras têm dois significados
Numa árvore junto ao ribeiro
Há um pássaro canoro que canta
Às vezes, todos os nossos pensamentos
São mal interpretados
Oh, isso faz-me pensar
Oh, isso faz-me pensar
Há um sentimento que tenho
Quando olho para oeste
E o meu espírito está
A clamar por partir
Nos meus pensamentos, tenho visto
Anéis de fumo entre as árvores
E as vozes daqueles
Que ficam a ol__har
Oh, isso faz-me pensar
Oh, realmente faz-me pensar
E sussurra-se que em breve
Se todos nós tocarmos a melodia
Então o flautista irá
Conduzir-nos à razão
E um novo dia amanhecerá
Para aqueles que permanecem de pé
E as florestas irão
Ecoar com risos
Se houver agitação
Na tua sebe
Não te assustes agora
É só uma limpeza
De primavera para a rainha de maio
Sim, há dois caminhos
Por onde podes passar
Mas a longo prazo
Ainda há tempo
Para mudares o caminho em que estás
E isso faz-me pensar
A tua cabeça está a zumbir e não passa
Caso não saibas
O flautista está a chamar-te para te juntares a ele
Querida senhora, consegues ouvir o vento a soprar?
E sabia que
A sua escadaria repousa
Sobre o vento sussurrante?
E enquanto descemos a estrada
As nossas sombras mais altas do que a nossa alma
Lá caminha uma senhora que todos conhecemos
Que brilha com luz branca e quer mostrar
Como tudo ainda se transforma em ouro
E se ouvires com muita atenção
A melodia chegará até ti por fim
Quando todos são um e um é tudo, sim
Para ser uma rocha e não rolar
E ela está a comprar uma escada para o céu

From the album
Led Zeppelin IV
Led Zeppelin · 1971 · Track 4
The story behind
Led Zeppelin included "Stairway to Heaven" on their fourth studio album, Led Zeppelin IV, released on November 8, 1971, on Atlantic Records. The song was written by guitarist Jimmy Page and singer Robert Plant, and Page also produced it. Recording sessions took place between December 1970 and February 1971 at Island Studios (London), the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio located at Stargroves, East Woodhay, Hampshire, and Ronnie Lane’s Mobile Studio at Headley Grange, Hampshire. The song is 8 minutes and 2 seconds long and spans the genres of progressive rock, folk rock, hard rock, and blues rock. Despite its enormous popularity, the song was never released as a single. Its status as the most requested track on U.S. radio stations, combined with the band’s decision not to release it as a single, is cited as a factor that may have contributed to Led Zeppelin IV becoming one of the best-selling albums in history. There is no absolute certainty as to whether the song’s title was taken from the title of a movie. The A-minor guitar solo that Page composed for this track was named the best in history by both Guitar World and Rolling Stone magazines. Instrument manufacturer Gibson also ranked it number one on its list of “The 50 Greatest Guitar Solos of All Time.” For its part, the chart aggregator site Acclaimed Music ranks “Stairway to Heaven” at number 25 among the most critically acclaimed songs of all time. Among the recorded live performances, the ones from the 1985 Live Aid concert and the 40th anniversary of Atlantic Records in 1988 stand out. There is also an instrumental version recorded at the Crossroads concert, featuring Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and other musicians. Although it is not a song that has been covered very often, there are some interpretations worth mentioning. Frank Zappa performed a reggae/ska-style version that was included on his album *The Best Band You Never Heard in Your Life*. The band Great White also recorded it for their Led Zeppelin tribute album titled Great Zeppelin. In July 2007, the New York Post published a list of the 100 best covers of all time, in which Dolly Parton’s rendition of “Stairway to Heaven” took first place. In 2016, the band faced a lawsuit for alleged plagiarism, due to the similarity between the intro to “Stairway to Heaven” and “Taurus,” an instrumental song released three years earlier by the group Spirit. The case was dismissed by a judge in the United States. The cover of Led Zeppelin IV bears no title, band name, or Atlantic Records logo—a decision Page made in response to the negative reviews received for Led Zeppelin III. Regarding that period, the guitarist stated: “We ended up fed up with the reactions to the third album, with people saying we were just a gimmick. So we said, ‘Let’s put out an untitled album!’ That way, people would either love it or hate it.” The cover image shows a painting of a man carrying firewood against peeling walls, and in the background, a house with a white sign reading: “Someone dies of hunger every day.” Inside the album are four symbols, one for each band member, along with a depiction of The Hermit, a tarot card associated with wisdom, self-sufficiency, and prudence. Of the four symbols, all have known explanations except for the one corresponding to Page, about which there are various theories that the guitarist himself never confirmed.
